Thursday, October 4th, 2007Walking is good for health - Late post
Saturday, June 2nd, 2007I am a very tired man today.
In the morning, upon alighting at the VJC bustop, I waited for C, who reached 5 mins later. The walking then started. From the bustop–> underpass–> chalets–> stretch of seafood restaurants–> hawker/food centre–> Bedok Jetty–> sailing club where we registered for our windsurfing course!
After signing up for the course, we started our journey back on foot since there was no other form of transportation. Sailing club–> Bedok Jetty–> hawker/food centre (where we had lunch and stoned for awhile)–> stretch of seafood restaurants–> overhead bridge–> bustop. It was seriously very hot/humid simultaneously, and even though we tried walking in the shade, I think we both got sun burned. Haha.
C is the first girl that i know who shops alone and does not mind walking these long distances in the sun. Ok, she complained that she was melting etc, but I could tell that she wasn’t upset coz when i wasn’t really sure where the sailing club was and wanted to call my dad to check, she said it was ok to just keep walking to check it out. =) Other girls would have refused to move until i find out where the place is exactly.
C went home to rest after her tiring overseas trip (she just came back on Thursday night), and i called HX. I was supposed to call HX ard 2pm to arrange for Shrek 3, but i knew she was still sleeping, so i called her at 3. Apparently her phone conked out and she lost her contact list (that silly girl saved all her contact numbers on her phone and not SIM card). She was going to repair her phone, and so cannot meet me. I told her its ok, i will still be going sommerset, since i wanted to go for the archery shoot there.
She was insistent that she will come find me still, and we can watch the movie at a later time slot. Actually i watched Shrek 3 on Thursday already, courtesy of KK, but since i have arranged to watch with HX, i decided to watch it again with her since for the first screening, i was seated in the 2nd row from the screen, resulting in a less than satisfactory experience.
Reached Sommerset at 440, went to shoot arrows, and noted that the so called instructors were all JC students. Tried to smoke me about archery stuff, but i was too nice to expose them, haha!
All the shows were fully booked, ended up booking the 9.25pm show. As a result, i had 4 hrs to burn. Walked to CK tangs to look at wallet, walked to Isetan to compare price, then walked back to CK tangs to buy my BB wallet @ $95.40 (after 10% discount). I only paid $15.4 thou, heh. I seem to have a thing for brown colour. First my shoes, then now my wallet.
HX reached when she got a ride from her dad. Apparently it would cost $150 to repair her phone, so we went around looking at phones. However, there wasn’t any model she fancies (she’s looking for a phone model that noone else would be using. What a strange girl). Shrek 3 was hilarious, especially the pseudo-lying by pinnochio and the flash back of gingerbread man. And i noticed alot more random stuff about the movie the 2nd time i watched, eg donkey and puss held hands before they were teleported, resulting in the body swap. Movie ended abt 1045? I went home after that, HX stayed behind to wait for her friends to watch Pirates at 1230am.
GSS
Monday, May 28th, 2007I have been living a hermit’s life. I didn’t know that the Great Singapore Sale was beginning on 26/5/07 until my client (a Filippino) asked if i was going shopping? I was like “Wtf? You are so slow in providing me with the schedules that i need and now you are telling me you are going shopping??” But since i am such a nice and understanding auditor, i told her that she could provide me the schedules next week. 
Have been wanting to get another pair of working shoes and since the GSS is on, it is the best time!
This pair of babies cost me $127.20 (after 20% discount). I only paid $7.20 coz i have $120 worth of Taka vouchers! CK Tangs were selling the same pair, but they didn’t have the size, so i went to Taka. Mom saw this pair of very nice leather shoes (in her opinion) and she offered to buy them for me. I tried them on and it was really comfy. Then i saw the price tag ($539!!) and told her its not nice.
Next acquisition, a new wallet with the remaining $80 Taka vouchers!
My Mug
Tuesday, May 1st, 2007Nono, i am not posting up pictures of my face… Cup you know?
Usually when i am at home, i don’t drink water from a cup. Instead, i would take the kettle and drink directly from the sprout without touching the sprout. Now this pisses my mum off coz she feels that by drinking this way, i am not drinking enough water.
Nonetheless, i still drink the same way, coz 1) its faster than going to the kitchen to grab a cup, 2) don’t have to wash the cup (see, i help to save water & my mum’s effort in washing a cup, dunno why she’s still mad at me for helping her cut down on work!), 3)drinking from the sprout is a test of hand-eye-mouth coordination, so i want to see if i am still up to it!
Presenting my mug! 
It was being sold together with 2 packs of biscuit so i picked it up during shopping at NTUC after breakfast today. Funny thing is, my mum also picked up the same thing when i met her, except that the colour she chose was blue! I just adore the purple colour mug and also the ”dulan” face of the character!
From now on, no more drinking from the kettle! =)
New wallet = new beginning?
Monday, April 16th, 2007I am thinking of getting a new wallet.
But the practical person in me is asking: Is the current wallet spoilt? If not why waste the money buying a new one?
Well, the current wallet is working fine, it just brings back too many memories. We bought it together, and i am reminded of her each time i see or feel my wallet. So maybe its just me trying to move on.
Even though its been like 1 yr and 1 month plus, it still seems like yesterday when i received her sms.
GSS
Saturday, June 10th, 2006I hate the GSS, for it is evurrrrl.
And it always results in a big hole in my wallet. I hardly buy things, but when i do, it is usually big ticket items, so the damage is especially painful.
